Finding out from a LRR commander video that the wanderer lost her spark is one of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen wizards do

On today’s episode of EDSC: Oops All Zendikar. We have Nahiri, a Zendikari Kor, we have Kiora, a Zendikari Merfolk, we have Nissa, a Zendikari Elf, and then there’s Ob Nixilis, the guy who was trapped on Zendikar for a thousand years.

I never tire of pointing this out: Nissa is not only Zendikari, but she’s from Bala Ged. So she should never have been named the Vastwood Seer, because the Vastwood is on Tazeem. An entirely different continent. “Nissa, Joraga Seer” would have been a more accurate name for the card and not even had to be a different font size.

I believe Wizards would have shared that lore with Sam since they're involved with this video. That said, some of what he said feels suspect? We didn't see anything in the official lore about anything happening outside Towashi. Then again, the official lore is a bunch of bs too (Nahiri falls 1000s of feet and doesn't die then performs magical surgery on herself to restore the hands that Phyrexia took from her displaying magic concerning biology that she's never exhibited before and all she has to show from that is some scabbing...) so who knows?

Great episode, nice to see higher power level, non-precon decks on EDSC. And the colab with Sam is one that I didn't know I wanted to see, great addition and a nice way to spread lore.

This is the best commander content on KZread. So many other shows feel either forced and overproduced or have low energy and a real lack of player charisma, but you guys nail it every time. Having Sam do lore tidbits is just incredible icing on an already amazing cake. Cheers!

I just wish EDSC wasn't geared towards precons. I'd love seeing more of their own brews.

"Wait, what's a 'Spon tan sauber'?" A Spontanzauber (Shpon-TUHN-tsow-bear) (lit. spontaneous spell) is an instant in German. Fun fact: This card, Crop Rotation, has an extra line of flavour text in German. Instead of "Hmm... maybe lotuses this year." it reads. "This year? Let's see, maybe lotuses - or beets."

I just want to show my appreciation for Ulmer's taste in forest artwork for Kathleen's deck. That's literally my favorite one of all time. Sunset through the trees? Gorgeous.

The addition of the lore was wonderful and the game was super entertaining. Probably my favorite episodes of Elder Dragon Social Club so far!

Man, throwing Sam into the mix on top of the already-astounding production we normally get from EDSC is just the cherry on top of a massive sundae! This video was great, and honestly love any time I see a new one in the queue.

I'm so excited to see how Nahiri does.

The banter makes this feel like an episode of Punt/Counterpunt and I love it

Look at all these former Planeswalkers as commanders! The entire multiverse is your oyster! We have former walkers from Zendikar…and one who was trapped there for a long time!

I didn’t know that I needed to hear Wheeler say “you don’t want this smoke” but I did need that 😂

Love the lore add-in, the decks look so fun. I think this might be the best episode yet. More brews! Good job Wheeler and Ben on the designs. Best episode of EDSC yet.

I never comment on videos but if someone from LRR read this : Lore + fun commander game is amazing! I hope more of this will be possible sometime in the future

Loved the lore drops. There was more lore in the segues of this video than the entirety of the MAT cards and stories.

An embarrassment of fishes was a very good line

Great video! Can't believe it took me until today to learn that Toski, Sarulf, and Cymede were compleated!

The Lore tidbits were fantastic. I'd love if that kept happening.

That shrug after ward 3 was so funny. Ward 3 ≈ hexproof.

"Its over. Theres just no Spark Between us anymore"

I love the energy in this episode. It's so relaxed and friendly. Lo Fi Commander game to summon your serpents to...

The Rhystic Study tidbits were really great! Thanks for including those!

Gotta Say our boy Magicmansam (congrats if you recognize that name) fit the vibe perfectly. His channel and this show are both the kind of thing I like watching with a nice cup of coffee, would love to see Magic Arcana get a crack at it too

Loved the game, the decks and the bonus @RhysticStudies lore drops! Excellent all around!

Really enjoyed the collab. The lore dumps were nicely done and look forward to more episodes like this

I know not every game lends itself to asides, but I very much loved the lore bits. Maybe if you all do new set themed games, something like this can come back. Great game also and I enjoyed the themes of each deck. Got some great deck building ideas for later. When someone borrows a deck I've built, I def make the same faces and big smiles Ben had about the Nissa deck. Such good seratonin when a deck you built is about to stomp. ^____^

Loved the lore inclusions! This was a super fun episode!

Couldnt wait for this one, so excited for the Game knights live vod after watching TTC.

Great episode! Loved the little lord drops.

Excellent game and the lore addition was very nice! Top notch!

That was such a great way to catch up with the story

Vorinclex said "I tap 3 forests and regenerate myself" (Hasn't happened on it yet but I'm hoping for a reappearance in a later set.)

"Like a true tactician, Ob Nixilus waited to see who won" Right. He DEFINITELY wasn't just a lazy coward, he was totally watching over the situation from on high. All according to Keikaku and what not

Leave it to Tricky Nix to somehow escape the suctorial grasp of Wheeler's sea beasties.

Fantastic episode! Great Deck builds!

i loved this! learning more lore while watching dope gameplay was awesome!

"That's an embarrassment of fishes!" Thank you Kathleen, that got me!

Ben playing my favorite (former) Planeswalker, and the card I'm most excited to build around from Aftermath.

I'd like to add to the nahiri lore that she only makes a vow against planeswalkers and only after starting a completely pointless fight with someone who came to check if she was okay which caused her to drop per own spark breaking it I only add this cause it's so dumb I find it funny

the Rhystic Studies lore was a nice touch.
